Glitter!

 Wow did we start this week off right! Not only did we spend a majority of our day outside, but we also got to use glitter. LOTS of glitter. Since we are always working on our self regulation, we thought it would be a good idea to carry some of these good strategies into our lives at home. Today, the kids sat down at the big table to create their very own sensory/ calm down bottles. This was so fun and the kids were very engaged! I mean who wouldn't want to put a bunch of glitter in a bottle?! 

After making the bottles we talked about when we should use it. 

"We can use it when we are feeling mad! You shake it all crazy!"

"Yeah, or maybe when you're sad."

We quickly practiced some crazy bodies before taking a deep breath and doing some yoga poses to bring us back to center. Once these bottles are dry, you can expect them to come right on home! They are a great fidget to keep in a special place in your house or maybe even the car. Enjoy this video of glitter madness!

Welcome back!!

 I hope you all enjoyed your long break together. We are back at it with our same centers and focus words UP and DOWN. This will be the last week for our current activities and will change it up for the last 2 weeks before our next BIG break. Only 12 days left together for the year and we are counting down!  Please help us celebrate:  Pine’s Friendsgiving Feast! Your kiddos have been hard at work filling each other's buckets through acts of kindness. They earned a special celebration before the Thanksgiving break but we held off our celebration so all friends could participate. Today we read a book called Feast for 10 and were inspired by some ingredients. If you would like to help us celebrate our friendship and donate to our feast, we would love it! Our plan is to celebrate on Thursday Dec 5th. Thanks :) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Zu9-130U8W6xGWiNsdlLMXYA9q8yOASwtSEybrST3Rc/edit?usp=sharing
